• While scanning have the sound turned up on your computer.– If you make a mistake in
scanning the computer will “gong” at you.
• Books not attached to your inventory will show as errors. (listen for “gong”)– Pull them out and set them
aside to fix later.
• Scan every item with a textbook barcode.– Look in cupboards, under
desks, in drawers.

Pick your favorite “Report type”.
With textbooks I usually choose “Titles”
Make sure you have your printer’s “name”

Cleaning up the mess

back in the inventory.
